Best Ever Chocolate Chip Salted Caramel Pretzel Blondies Recipe - Hands down the best Blondies you can make at home. Chock-full with Chocolate Chips, Pretzels and a very generous drizzle of Salted Caramel.

Chocolate Chip Salted Caramel Pretzel Blondies are the happiest accidental creation to have come out of my oven over the past few weeks.

The main reason why I adore this recipe so much is that they bake up beautifully every time. They’re slightly browned and crisp on the outside, but the best part, the inside, stays so moist, gooey and chewy. The similarity to brownies is undeniable.

Brownies are my absolute favorite bars. All things chocolate really are my favorite. Adam, on the other hand, prefers anything that doesn’t involve chocolate or contains small amounts. So just in case you are that someone or live with anther person who doesn’t love chocolate quite as much, these blondies are the best compromise. Not as rich and fudgy as brownies, but every bit as satisfying.

The batter for these blondies holds a healthy amount of chocolate chips and broken pretzel pieces. Giving the blondies great texture and that sweet & salty thing so many of us love. The caramel drizzle at the end totally sets each and every yummy square over the top.
